Welcome to Barcelona and the party-hub of Lloret de Mar!

After landing in the sunny city of Barcelona we’ll be loading up onto the Stoke bus enroute to the Costa Brava. If you can’t make the bus times, don’t stress – you can opt to meet us there, just make sure you give us a heads up.

Bus 1: 12:00 pm

Bus 2: 3:00 pm

Bus 3: 6:00 pm

Once we reach the Stoke Base Camp, you’ll get the opportunity to explore our adult playground: the unlimited beer and sangria bar, the seshpit where you can boogy your little heart out with our Stoke DJs, an onsite swimming pool, and mini-golf (where you can sink your balls into some freshly cut holes). With an on-site restaurant and supermarket, it’ll be difficult to find a reason to leave the Base Camp – if there wasn’t a slice of the Mediterranean a short stroll away. Head to the beach for a dip and come back salty, satisfied, and salivating for bevvy.

Remember lodge, bungalow, and glamping options are available for an upgrade of £80 per person per night.

Make the most of the free booze by sinking a beer bong (or three (make it four, you coward)) before heading into town – we’ve partnered with some of the hottest clubs in Lloret de Mar – Privé, Gothic, Wild, and the retro arcade Magic Park – where you’ll score free-entry on Stoke’s behalf. But this little beach-side gem has a whopping 300 clubs to choose from – with that many venues, the odds that you’ll find love – or a shady guy selling washing powder in the bathrooms – are definitely tilted in your favour.

Today is all about getting competitive with rival Uni groups, dodging sunburn, and sinking drinks in the sand. We’re diving headfirst into the Beach Olympics (12pm), where you’ll team up and unleash your inner sports superstar (or in reality: your inner half-cut noob with sand pasted to his face) against other university clubs and societies. A game of tug-of-war can turn interesting after half a case, not to mention relay races and 5-a-side football. 

If you’re not in an Olympics mood, no worries; you can lax out on the beach with a cold one or hire a kayak for the day and explore the crystal waters of the Costa Brava. 

BOAT PARTY OPTIONAL ADD-ON – 3:00 pm or 4:00 pm: For those booked onto the sunset Boat Party, expect free beer, sangria, and a BBQ on a party Catamaran along the Mediterranean coastline. 

Before heading out, let’s continue drinking at the Pre-campsite party, where we’ve got a stacked line-up of up and coming UK DJs on the decks to get you ready to take on another night in town – they’ll be on stage from 8:00 – 9:00pm.

After a morning of well-deserved relaxation (or recovery), alongside a FREE hot brunch and mimosas to ease you into the swing of things, we’re diving right back into the action with the most popular pool party on the Costa Brava: Sanddance pool party!  Featuring electronic DJs, a sexy-ass foam party, several bars and lounging areas, a volleyball and beach soccer field, Balinese beds, and exclusive VIP areas. 

All good things must come to an end – it’s time to bid farewell to your party squad and head back to Barcelona. Whether you’re flying home or continuing your adventures in the city, we’ll make sure you get to the airport or city drop-off.
